Daffara sidelined: muscle injury for Parma goalkeeper

Bad news for Parma and Giovanni Daffara. The 2005-born goalkeeper has suffered a low-grade muscle injury to his right thigh, forcing him to miss time on the pitch.

An injury that complicates matters for the Emilia club at this stage of the season. Daffara, viewed as one of the most promising Italian goalkeeper prospects for the future, must now follow the recovery plan set by Parma's medical staff.

For the young shot-stopper it comes at a critical juncture in his development: every match matters given the ambition of earning an international call-up. Parma will continue monitoring his condition closely.
